Tools and Hardware Reviews of Culligan HF-360 Whole House Sediment Filter Clear Housing
Customer Review: Very Good Housing. - Much better than the unit it replaces!
Summary: 5 Stars
This whole house filter housing is replacing an Omni housing that was here when we moved into the house 7 years ago. The Omni developed a pinhole leak...so it had to be replaced.
This Culligan Housing is Sooooo Much better! It not only appears to be significantly more be more durable and much better made than the Omni...but the fact that the housing container is clear let's you accurately see the condition of the filter within. Additionally it accepts wider cartridges than the Omni...which allows you greater choice when choosing replacement filters.
All in all I rate this Culligan unit 5 Big Stars! Much better quality than what I was expecting!! The pictures here on Amazon don't do this unit justice. Very good choice.
Customer Review: It's all relative

Currently have one installed (on outlet from water heater, to trap scale -- !) by plumber. Always a pain to change filter: cannot unscrew canister w/o threatening to break pipes, so have to remove the whole unit and get it down on the floor and use two arms and a leg to remove the canister. Developed a slow leak around the canister threads (6-7 years old?) and now a fast leak from the top valve, so I guess I'll replace with the same model -- cause you should read the reviews on the Whirlpool equivalent. At least the canister hasn't exploded on this one yet. (Wish I could find the type -- unknown, no manufacturer id -- on our inlet lines: 15 years, never a problem, and easy to change filters.)Customer Review: filter

we live on a well, and only the washing machine collects enough sediment, blue granite, to clog up the small thimble sized machine filter. solution....spend the 30$ or so and put this filter between the cold water entry to machine.........simple...but 2x 3/4 brass couplings to attach to the filter, get an extra 5$ washing machine hose, and connect. now i dont have to clean out the trap every 2 weeks....its more like avery 9 months. and a new filter is only have installed it in the main water line from well, but add another 100$ plus labor for a certified plumber.....this is an ez do-it-yourself job......Customer Review: Keep it warm

I purchased this filter to use only for filling my hot tub. The temp dropped below freezing and the bottom housing shattered like someone dropped a grenade in it even though it was empty at the time! My fault. The precautions specifically state to it must be protected against freezing. I went to manufactures site to order a replacement housing but after shipping costs, I discovered I could order the whole unit from Amazon for $3 more. I also noted that the manufacturer recommends replacing the bottom housing every 5 years for the clear housing and very ten years for the opaque housing.Customer Review: Leaked right out of the box

I replaced a leaking water filter with this one. The old one started leaking around the pipe fittings (after five years without a problem). I could not get the old one to stop leaking so I got this Culligan unit, which is very similar, to replace it. Well, this one leaked from where the clear housing screws into the main housing, where the gasket is. I removed the clear housing several times, made sure the gasket was seated correctly, and basically followed all the instructions to the letter, but could not get this one to stop leaking at all. It went back the next day.
